Plan Your Visit to Bealtaine Cottage

Bealtaine Cottage and Gardens are open from now until the end of October, but only to subscribers of BEALTAINE COTTAGE GOOD LIFE.
Bookings can be made on the new website ONLY.
Visiting can be arranged at a time to suit us both.
The map is on the new website, BEALTAINE COTTAGE GOOD LIFE, along with my telephone number. Please subscribe...there is a link at the top of the page.
A visit usually lasts around 2-3 hours, as there are so many questions to answer and aspects of permaculture to explain.
You will be able to look around the cottage and see how everything works.
Tea/Fresh Coffee and home-made cake available!
If the weather is wet, wellingtons are advised!
You can take photographs.
You can also bring a picnic to enjoy in the gardens. There are two verandas and a very warm polytunnel with tables and chairs!
Blessings

Permaculture in Ireland

Bealtaine Cottage is the oldest established, publicly accessible Permaculture Smallholding in the North West of Ireland, now in its eleventh year.

Back doorsteps…

“Sitting at our back doorsteps, all we need to live a good life lies about us. Sun, wind, people, buildings, stones, sea, birds and plants surround us. Cooperation with all these things brings harmony, opposition to them brings disaster and chaos.” ― Bill Mollison

Gaia…

The more speculative versions of Gaia, hold that it is possible that the Earth is actually conscious, sentient, and highly intelligent. This is what I believe!

“Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.” ― Arundhati Roy

Seven generation sustainability is an ecological concept that urges the current generation of humans to live sustainably and work for the benefit of the seventh generation into the future.

Our Challenge…

Energy efficiency and renewable energy are said to be the twin pillars of sustainable energy. Wood is sown, grown and used to fuel two stoves at Bealtaine Cottage.
